INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD OF INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

An information processing apparatus includes one or more processors that function as the following units: a detection unit configured to detect a defect occurring in a structure by using local information about the structure based on a first image of the structure; a first determination unit configured to determine a global state of the structure based on a result of detection of the defect by the detection unit and global information indicating information about a wider area than an area of the structure indicated by the local information, the global information being based on a second image having a lower resolution than that of the first image; and a second determination unit configured to determine a degree of damage to a predetermined area of the structure based on a result of determination made by the first determination unit of the global state of the structure.
